With the passage of Senate Bill SB123, Louisiana has become the third state to enact a bill that provides for chaplaincy in schools, in advance of the passing of HB334.

Beryl Amedee, R-District 51, championed these bills for school chaplaincy, which has a proven role in alleviating tension, resolving conflict and bringing hope to school faculty and students.
